Praised by top executives as “perhaps the most important document to ever come out of Silicon Valley”. Two decades ago, Netflix quietly released a 124-slide culture presentation, and it changed how we talk about work. It quickly became a global blueprint for forward-thinking workplace culture. The Netflix Culture Deck championed values like radical honesty, freedom with responsibility, and a no-nonsense approach to performance. But the world of work has changed dramatically since 2009.



In this Episode: Tom Bradshaw, LindaAnn Rogers, Nicolas Krueger,  Dr. Emi Barresi, Jason Hamil, Rich Cruz, Dr. Tim Sharples.
